90: Section 90

What they were most worried about was that the seemingly free portion would hide ridiculously expensive charges for anything exceeding it, completely scamming people.

The result? The excess fee is five cents per kilowatt-hour?

Isn't that practically free?

That means one hundred kilowatt-hours only costs five yuan!

Even if they exceeded it by a thousand kilowatt-hours, everyone generally agreed they could easily afford it!

Of course, the last sentence also caused everyone to share a knowing smile.

"Everyone, remember to pay your electricity bill. After this month, you might never have the chance to pay it again in your lifetime!"

"This last electricity payment is truly worth commemorating!"

"How should we explain to our sons what paying an electricity bill is, when they ask us in the future?"

"Wake up, upstairs! You don't have a wife!"

"That's a brutal attack!"

"Everyone, remember to save your electricity bills. Maybe in ten or twenty years, they'll become valuable souvenirs! You might even make a profit selling them later!"

"Upstairs is a business genius!"

"Huaguo is awesome! Lin's Fusion Power is awesome! Lin's is awesome!"

"Five cents per kilowatt-hour, this is amazing, hahaha! How is this different from being free?"

"I heard they lowered the price by ten cents on the other side of the ocean? Sorry, ours is completely free!"

"I'm dying of laughter. What superiority were they showing off back then? And this is the result? Plus, they're using Nuclear Fission for power generation, which is very dangerous!"

"In just one experimental month, Nuclear Fusion is already out. If the experimental month were longer, I wouldn't dare imagine what else Lin's could create!"

"They wouldn't be able to create mechas, would they?"

"This is getting increasingly fantastical, but if it's Lin's, you really never know!"

"..."

The day this news spread throughout the streets and alleys of Huaguo.

Ordinary households were even more excited.

For many families, saving on the monthly electricity bill, which is a significant expense, was a very direct form of assistance.

Many people, seeing themselves in Huaguo and witnessing its gradual rise to power while not forgetting the common populace, couldn't help but be moved to tears.

Of course, compared to the excitement of the Huaguo citizens.

When this news reached countries around the world, the people there were truly dumbfounded.

Nuclear Fusion????

Lin's Fusion Power???

This is Nuclear Fusion!

How did you just make it simply by saying you did?

Weren't your previous announcements just talk?

We all thought you were joking, but you were serious?

Nuclear Fusion, this is a technology that can truly be called the light of humanity. Nuclear Fusion energy is even recognized as the only way for humans to enter space exploration!

All other fuels are insufficient to support cosmic exploration, only enough to spin around the solar system at most.

Furthermore, in terms of cost, only Nuclear Fusion offers the best value, and it is also the most stable and reliable!

Otherwise, look.

Huaguo, having just achieved a breakthrough in Nuclear Fusion technology, immediately implemented free electricity for all citizens!

The entire international community immediately disbelieved this.

They thought it was news released by Huaguo's Strategic Deception Bureau.

However, when they saw that this was an official policy issued by the government, a formal policy that could be verified and certified!

Instantly, the whole world was in an uproar and utterly astonished.

This time, without needing anyone to promote it, the term [Lin's Fusion Power] immediately became the top trending topic on all social platforms across every country worldwide.

Everyone felt immense envy and jealousy about this.

Especially Lighthouse Country.

They had just shown off their superiority regarding the nationwide electricity price reduction, and now others had implemented nationwide free electricity!

And honestly, Lighthouse Country's electricity prices, even after the reduction, were still not as cheap as Huaguo's prices before the reduction!

Similarly, Huaguo's actions received praise and envy from surrounding countries, big and small.

However, inside The White House on the other side of the ocean.

In the conference room, all the officials and congressmen who saw this intelligence report from Huaguo were completely stunned.

Even the chairperson didn't know how to start speaking.

The entire conference room fell silent for a full three minutes.

Finally, someone blurted out, "Holy Crap," and everyone snapped back to attention.

"What the F*ck!? Did Huaguo really develop Nuclear Fusion?"

"Didn't the President guarantee that Huaguo was only learning to develop Nuclear Fission like them? And told us not to worry?"

"Oh my god! With Nuclear Fusion out, Huaguo will probably replace us as the center of the world!"

"Nuclear Fusion power generation is just the first step. In the future, relying on the immense energy brought by Nuclear Fusion, they will completely surpass us!"

"We absolutely cannot let this happen!"

"This is illegal nuclear testing! They have violated the international non-nuclear treaty! Condemn them, we must severely, severely condemn them!"

Huaguo's rapid rise brought endless pressure directly upon Lighthouse Country.

If it weren't for the hundreds of people watching him, the President might not have been able to stand steady upon receiving this news.

Is Huaguo even human?

You managed to develop Nuclear Fusion, a technology fifty years ahead of its time, in just one month?

Even if you developed it, couldn't you announce it slowly, step by step?

You immediately introduced it completely into public life, achieving free electricity for all citizens?

Don't they know how much profit is involved?

Huaguo truly doesn't understand how to make money!

Of course, the President was just thinking according to the mindset of Lighthouse Country.

However, even if Huaguo wanted to make money, they certainly wouldn't exploit their own people like this!

Chief Yun had already planned everything when drafting this policy back then.

The power generation efficiency of Lin's Fusion Power is unimaginably high.

Ten Lin's Fusion Power plants—in reality, eight would have been completely sufficient for Huaguo's standard electricity needs.

The extra one is to ensure greater stability and prevent any unforeseen accidents.

And the extra two? That is, of course, for business!

Countries in the North and Southwest have already begun requesting to purchase electricity from Huaguo.

These countries are small and sparsely populated; their entire national territory is only about the size of a province in Huaguo.

The two extra Lin's Fusion Power plants are entirely sufficient for Huaguo to export this surplus electricity.

This way, there is no need for the citizens to bear the burden of this electricity cost, and it can also drive the rapid economic development of Huaguo.

Moreover, after Nuclear Fusion is released, all industries in Huaguo are bound to undergo a new round of comprehensive upgrades!

At that time, industries across all sectors in Huaguo will enter an era of leapfrog progress!

Consequently, the national economy will naturally become increasingly prosperous.

Many foreign people have even developed a yearning for Huaguo.

They wish they had been born in Huaguo.

Unfortunately, that cannot be changed!

...Chapter 84: Entering the New Energy Era! International Shock! Is Lighthouse Country Getting Serious? [Pleading for Subscriptions!!]

Chapter 84: Entering the New Energy Era! International Shock! Is Lighthouse Country Getting Serious?

Following the complete construction of the ten [Lin's Fusion Power] projects.

This announced that the entirety of Huaguo had officially stepped into the New Energy Era!

It was no longer the tentative step of using Combustible Ice, but a true entry into this field!

Moreover, it is the Nuclear Fusion power generation era, where everyone nationwide can enjoy this energy benefit.

After the very last household reluctantly paid their electricity bill for the current month.

This also announced the official implementation of the permanent free electricity policy.

All citizens officially began enjoying the benefits brought by this policy, and electricity usage would no longer be a burden on household life.

In this fully electrified era, free electricity greatly enhances the happiness level of the populace.

More convenience, higher efficiency!

Of course, while Huaguo provided convenience to its citizens, it also gained extremely high revenue for the entire country through [Lin's Fusion Power].

Zhou Zishang, the Minister of Energy, now couldn't hide the smile on his face.

The moment he saw Chief Yun, he eagerly rushed over and excitedly said to him:

"Chief Yun, the decision you made is truly wonderful!"
